Biden talks '10

He acknowledged the Dems' challenges this fall, but also made the case for why they may mitigate their losses:

Acknowledging the bleak current polls, the vice president recalled: “My grandfather used to always say, ‘Joey, you have to have somebody to beat somebody.'”

“Right now, we’re in our most vulnerable position,” Biden said. “And that is that the American people, no matter what they think of the direction of the country — even if it’s positive — a lot of them are left out there in a real difficult situation. We lost 8 million jobs because of this recession. And although we’ve created over 600,000 in the first six months of this year, we have a long way to go. And so people are dissatisfied because they’re having trouble makin’ it. And right now, you’ve got Democrats versus the Democrats — the most vulnerable place we can be. But once you start to put names and faces on the opposition, you’re going to see this thing change.”
